After a long week at work, I could finally go to the beach by myself. It was a lovely time to watch families come and go for a warm weekend here in California.
After a few hours, I noticed a little girl playing by herself. It looked like she built a sandcastle and was now trying to fill it with water. The sandcastle looked beautiful in the summer sunshine.
Unluckily, there was no container around to carry water. She would go to the waves, cup her hands and then walk back to her little castle. Sadly, not much of the water was kept in her hands every time she returned to the castle. But she kept trying and was still smiling and hopeful. So I wished I could help her out.
As I was standing there watching her, I suddenly realized I had a bottle of water in my bag. I quickly took it out and walked over to give it to her.
Uncertain of what to do first she shook her head shyly, saying no. I reassured (安慰) her it would make getting the water faster. She smiled widely and finally took it. Not wanting her to feel uncomfortable, I walked off the beach right away.
Looking back at her running to the sea with the same big smile, I knew when she noticed someone needed help in her life, she would recall (回忆起) this little act of kindness from a stranger. And then a gentle world would be around her.
19. What was the weather like?
A. Sunny. B. Rainy. C. Cloudy. D. Snowy.
20. What might the underlined word “container” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. B. C. D.
21. Which of the following can best describe how the little girl’s feelings changed?
A. Excited→Sad→Nervous B. Nervous→Hopeful→Surprised
C. Cheerful→Shy→Happy D. Helpless→Happy→Uncomfortable
22. What does the passage mainly want to tell us?
A. A beach vacation helps us relax. B. Spending more time alone is good.
C. Kids should not play outside alone. D. A small act of kindness can make a better world.
C
Sometimes, families can be hard. They argue a lot. People get upset. Sometimes they stop talking. Our family has had lots of ups and downs. I’d say arguments often happen in our family, too.
I have an older brother and an older sister. I’m the baby boy in the family. We grew up in a quite small house and often didn’t have a lot of money. My mom and dad argued pretty much, just about anything. My brother and sister argued. And I used to argue, too.
But as I got older, I always chose to be the mediator (调停者). I would try to look at both sides of the argument and bring them together to make peace. “Dad, you shouldn’t have said that to Mom, and Mom, try to see it this way.” “Come on guys, we all love each other. It’s just been a bad day.” I’d say it often worked.
I learned much growing up in our family: understanding, being patient and the knowledge that sometimes things just don’t go in your way. We all make mistakes. We all say things that we wish we hadn’t done. The key is to try and understand. Of course, sometimes arguments do need to happen. If something is wrong, it needs to be solved and sometimes, we get angry about it. But as long as we can look at things with an attitude of care and responsibility (责任), we can weather the storm and help each other out.
23. What do we know about the writer’s family?
A. Two of the kids in the family are girls. B. The writer is the youngest in the family.
C. The writer never argues with his parents. D. The parents get along well with each other.
24. As a mediator, what did the writer often do?
A. He started a conversation angrily. B. He did nothing to help but watch.
C. He helped one side to fight the other. D. He tried to make an agreement with each other.
25. What does the underlined part mean?
A. We can ask somebody for help when in trouble. B. We can tell exactly what the weather will be like.
C. We can deal with a difficult situation successfully. D. We can learn how to keep cool during a storm.
26. What did the writer learn from his family?
A. A family shouldn’t share feelings with each other. B. A family should understand and care for each other.
C. Arguing is always bad and should never happen. D. Knowledge is useless in communication.
D
Going to an art museum can be a fun activity. However, if you’re not sure what the art is about, it may seem boring. Here are many ways to understand different kinds of art.
You don’t need to visit the most famous museum in your area. Instead, have an adult help you look at the websites of a few local museums to see what exhibits (展览) they have. Choose one you’re interested in to visit. For example, if you enjoy taking photos, you might go to a photography exhibit.
If a piece of art (艺术品) catches your eye, you may start by getting close to the artwork. Think about the story the artwork may be trying to tell. Bring a notebook and pencil with you, so you can make a quick drawing yourself. This way, you might see new details (细节) of it that you didn’t notice before.
If you want to find out more details of the artwork, a volunteer at the museum may be helpful to talk to you about it. Free brochures (手册) may also provide information. You can also ask yourself what the work means to you. For example, maybe the colors in the piece remind you of a place that’s special to you or the emotions you’ve been feeling.
Besides these, talking also helps. After you leave the museum, you can talk to a friend who went with you, and ask them about their favorite pieces, too. Different people would have different ideas. The way artists make themselves understood through their work is the magic of art really.
27. What’s the writer’s advice when choosing a museum?
A. Ask your parents to help you decide. B. Visit the most famous museum nearby.
C. Choose an exhibit that interests you. D. Go to see a photography exhibit first.
28. Why do you need a notebook and pencil according to paragraph 3?
A. To draw a similar picture by yourself. B. To draw a picture of yourself quickly.
C. To write down the story of the artwork. D. To copy things from the free brochures.
29. What may be the magic of art really according to the last paragraph?
A. The art pieces that stay in your mind for a long time.
B. The way you understand an artist through their work.
C. The time you spend talking with your friend or adult.
D. The story your favorite piece of art is trying to tell.
30. Which of the following best shows the structure of the text? (①=Paragraph 1)
A. B. C. D.
第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A-E五个选项中选择正确的选项(其中一项是多余选项),将其序号填入小题,并回答问题(请注意小题后的词数要求)。
How would you feel if someone decided to take away your park? ____31____ There’s a park and some people want to turn it into a golf course (高尔夫球场). Let me tell you why I think it’s a bad idea.
First, a park is for the whole community. Not everyone likes golf, so not everyone will get to use the park. A community park should have open spaces for everyone to use.
Second, to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment (设备) will have to be moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. ____32____
Third, what about giving young people something to do? At the moment, the park has a skating place and a playground. ____33____ If you turn the park into a golf course, these kids won’t have anywhere to go and they won’t have anything to do. They may just stay at home and play video games.
Finally, golf is expensive. ____34____ What about those people who can’t afford to join a golf club?
Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting before planning to go any further.
A. Not all kids are crazy about golf.
B. It’s also a waste of perfectly good equipment.
C. These attract lots of kids from the community.
D. Well, that’s what’s happening in my community.
E. Building a golf course and maintaining (维护) it cost a lot of money.
Do you like the idea of turning a park into a golf course? Why? (回答不少于20词)

Good morning, everyone! I’m glad to be here to share some of my ideas on how to keep active.
First, taking physical exercise is a great way to lower stress. Whether it’s playing basketball or doing morning exercises, being active boosts your mood. I love swimming because it relaxes me. Next, having proper communication with friends is helpful. Sharing your feelings can lighten your load and bring you closer together. It’s nice knowing they support you. What’s more, volunteering is also beneficial. Helping others not only serves the community but also makes you feel happy. I enjoyed volunteering at a food bank. Lastly, taking up a new hobby like painting can be very relaxing. It allows you to express yourself creatively and distracts you from daily pressures.
I hope you find these tips helpful and be happy every day!
